[11-06-2026] Napa County, CA – Two Separate Crashes Cause Major Traffic Disruptions on Highway 29

Two separate crashes caused significant traffic disruptions along Highway 29 in Napa County on Friday, November 6, 2026.

One collision involved an overturned fuel-carrying big rig, while the other appeared to be a head-on crash between two vehicles.

According to California Highway Patrol traffic logs, the first collision was reported around 7:06 a.m. and involved three vehicles and a fuel-carrying big rig. The truck overturned and began leaking fuel, prompting authorities to close all lanes for cleanup.

A severe traffic alert was issued at approximately 7:26 a.m. for the fuel spill on southbound State Route 29, south of State Route 221. By 7:46 a.m., one lane had reopened. Authorities had not immediately confirmed whether anyone was injured in the crash.

A second collision was reported around 11:54 a.m. on Highway 29, just north of Bird Hill Road near St. Helena. Initial reports indicated that a white Honda pickup truck and a white Toyota Sequoia were involved in a possible head-on collision. Additional vehicles may also have been involved, though the exact number was unclear.

At least one person was initially reported inside a vehicle following the second crash. The extent of any injuries was not immediately available.

The collision blocked both northbound and southbound lanes, prompting emergency officials to divert traffic onto Deer Park Road and Silverado Trail shortly after noon.

At approximately 12:25 p.m., CHP officers requested two tow trucks to remove vehicles from the roadway, including a pickup truck with major front-end damage.

Both crashes caused temporary road closures, but Highway 29 reopened around 12:55 p.m., according to traffic logs. The causes of both collisions were not immediately known.
